Cool, we need more water anyhoo, major lakes and seas are all down. So, if we are composed of like 75% water, I wonder how much water 5 billion people are sucking up and carrying around?

Eh. I take it semi-seriously, but the world isn't going to do anything about it until it starts affecting a fairly decent amount of people in a populated nation... But since this is a long term thing, we're doomed. Well not us really, but our children's children's children's children's.. etc.

It's not so long termed as you might think. That's the point and the concern. The navy is already making plans for what to do in an ice free north.
